Eight adapters should work out of the box. More adapters may work if you increase the DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS define in drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvbdev.c. Applications may have their own limit. MythTV for example has also a limit of 8 DVB adapters per backend. > I've an industrial pc from icp electronics that lets me to install up > to 13 pci cards. ( It has active backplane). Please note that more than ten typical DVB-S or DVB-C multiplexes (~50mbit/s) may saturate a single 32bit/33mhz PCI bus. I hope that they use more than one PCI bus for 13 slots.
